Jon Green @jonmgreen.bsky.social · 07/10/2026He’s moved off Boyton lately, after a ton of it early in the year. Recently it’s been a lot of “The Little Excavator” and “Tractor Ted.” I do not understand the tiny toddler fascination with big machines… 100
Jon Green @jonmgreen.bsky.social · 07/10/2026So I sat down to work on my 2027 reading list, just to jot down a few things I wanted to make sure I got to; and I somehow have mapped out what I’m going to read for the entire year. So far a lot of medieval lit, early 20th century SFF, and books I used Sparknotes for in Highschool. 131

Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves. 10381712846

Jon Green @jonmgreen.bsky.social · 17/08/2026It’s just so frustrating, because parts of the game are absolutely amazing. And even the parts that don’t work, I see what they were going for. But the companion(s) are bad enough that I almost didn’t want to finish the game. They didn’t even give a “talk less” toggle. This must have come up in QA 100
Jon Green @jonmgreen.bsky.social · 17/08/2026I know that so many others have already said it, but I’m still baffled that in #Metroid Prime 4, a series about isolation and exploration, they decided it would be good to give a companion who tells you where to go and Will. Not. Shut. Up. Absolutely baffling choice #Prime4 100

Jon Green @jonmgreen.bsky.social · 16/07/2026I’ve seen this happen with other cons. They go to the con and demo the game, and after people play it, you point them to the sign with the QR code. GenCon serves as a way to get your game in front of thousands of people who may not otherwise see it. 110
